ROGERS' 10* BROWNS/RAVENS ULTIMATE BLOWOUT > > 1:00 EST KICKOFF!
(NFL) Cleveland vs. Baltimore,
Point Spread: 7.00 | -110.00 Cleveland (Away)
Result: Win
The set-up: Last year these team's split two very close games which were decided by a combined five points. I don't think anything will change this season either between these division rivals. The Ravens' offense looks decent behind Lamar Jackson, who has 863 yards passing and seven TD's. But the Ravens are in a letdown spot after their first loss of the year last week, falling 33-28 in Kansas City. Yes the Browns are only 1-2, but they've looked a lot better after their poor Week 1 performance/collapse vs. the Titans. Cleveland looked great last week I thought despite falling 20-13 at home to the high-powered Rams. Bayker Mayfield is under an extreme amount of pressure and while he did throw an INT on the four yard line with 33 seconds left, I think he continues to progress and gain confidence as the season progresses. This is a big game for Cleveland, as a win today propels them into a tie for the division lead.

The pick: Cleveland's offense is going to break out at some point this year and if not now, when? Cleveland's defense is ranked 16th overall, allowing 22 PPG. The Ravens average 36 PPG and they concede 20. This isn't going to be a cake-walk, but the Browns to have the talent in all three phases to hang with the Ravens and when you add on the desperation factor, I wouldn't in fact be shocked by an outright upset. Note that the Ravens are 0-4 ATS in their last four at home and in their last four following a SU loss, while the Browns are 4-1 ATS in their last five following an ATS loss and 7-2 ATS in their last nine following a SU loss. I'm grabbing the points.
